Default U2 and their collection of Grammies.

Anyone knows how many they have? Must be hundreds by now.
If I was Bono I'd sell them on e-bay.

Still, I was wondering, wat for did they get 5 Grammies last night? For Bono being socially active? I can't imagine it was for the music since The Bomb thingy they did was utter crap. One of the most boring albums they ever recorded. I like U2 but nowadays they are only appreciated for being U2.

Just a random thought.

I don't like their last album at all...just a few songs. And I think they always get good critics because of Bono and what he does. Critics will always be on their side, I'm afraid....

That's a good reason to be afraid. Maybe one day...

8?

Didn't he say at one point this was the 6th as they had received 2 earlier that evening? That would mean they got 3 from previous years.

I don't think U2 have ever had a run like last night.


'How to...' is a GREAT album

I for one love their last album. Their best since Achtung Baby.

It was definitely another fantastic one - though different from what most people would expect from U2.

Was good, better than the previous two, but a couple of fillers leave just below How To... in my book.
